It's lovely, let it be. No quilt is ever too long (short maybe).

First of all -- I love your quilt. Wonderful pattern and colors. In my opinion, I would leave as is. So what if it is a little long - just fold or tuck as others have mentioned. Personally, I appreciate covers if they are a little longer as they always creep down to the bottom of the bed and I have to yank to pull them over me.

I would too, its beautiful. I make them that way on purpose when making for my own bed. I am not a quilt person with tons of pillows on my bed. I am an old fashioned bedspread person, so the longer the better. I love your quilt.

my vote is to leave it as is. I like mine longer to tuck under the pillows & not fool with pillow shams

It's beautiful!

I agree, just tuck under pillows. I love it just as it is.
